Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me

Chapter 44: The Tang Mansion Starts a Business that Causes Trouble

"Dad! But he..... wuwuwuwu......"

Cheng Congxian's mind seemed to be filled with paste. He couldn't understand why his father praised him for enduring the injustice even though he was clearly wronged!

Cheng Su raised his eyebrows slightly, then laughed: "What's money? Your father has a very profitable business!"

Hangzhou is a land of fish and rice, and has no shortage of money.

When Miss Gu arrived, she gave him another big business deal!

There is a kind of opium called opium in Yunnan. After smoking it, people will feel euphoric. Once you are addicted to it, you can’t leave it anymore!

Moreover, the opium business had low capital investment and high profits. Dian City was extremely poor, and one tael of silver was enough to feed and clothe a family of seven or eight for a year.

Many families planted mountains of opium, and when the flowers and fruits bloomed, they boiled them into opium. If they could sell dozens or hundreds of kilograms of opium for two or three taels of silver, they would be very happy.

Miss Gu asked him to contact the prefect of Dian City with a letter, stating that if the people could offer 100 kilograms of opium a year, they would be exempted from one year's labor. In this way, the opium could be purchased at a lower price.

Making money couldn't be easier!

"No matter how much he wants, give him double it. Just consider it as a little gift from dad!" Cheng Su snorted comfortably.

Cheng Congxian was stunned. Was his father crazy?

In the past, he squandered the family money, didn't his father scold him every time? !

Why are you so tolerant towards that pretty boy?

Cheng Congxian slapped him in dissatisfaction: "Dad, I haven't even eaten the five fish yet, and he wants fifty thousand taels from me!"

Cheng Su was delighted. If he wanted money, it must be for something big, so just give it to him!

He said, "Give him 100,000 taels! Our goods will arrive soon. By then, let alone 500,000 taels, I can even give him 500,000 taels! Son, listen to me, give him whatever he wants, go!"

"Dad!" Cheng Congxian said with aggrieved look and a little reluctance.

Cheng Congxian had no choice but to soften his tone and coax him, "Congxian! This is Daddy's opportunity, and it's also your opportunity. If you get along well with him, you will have plenty of opportunities to rise to prominence in the future! Daddy won't harm you!"

Cheng Congxian nodded, not quite understanding.

When he came out of the study, his face was still dazed. He went to the accounting office to withdraw silver according to his father's instructions, and then sent the silver to Guangyuntai in a daze.

-

Shen Xiyue took the jade pendant from Miao Yan, moved out of the inn and lived in Guangyuntai.

When Miao Yan left, she explained to everyone in the building that Shen Xiyue had a special identity. After Shen Xiyue moved in, she would listen to music and watch dance every day when she had nothing to do.

In the first two days, all the beauties in Guangyuntai were extremely nervous.

They were afraid of offending the prince who came from the capital, but within a few days, all the beauties in the building felt that Prince Qi was a really nice person.

The first one is to be extremely lenient to your subordinates.

Not to mention the silver reward she received as soon as she showed up, these few days, as long as she was around, the daily meals at Guangyuntai were provided by the major restaurants in Hangzhou City, which took turns sending wine and banquets. Although they didn't dare to eat and drink to their heart's content, it was always good to have such a thought from the noble person.

In Guangyuntai, the beauties are not busy every day.

When he was free, the prince would set up his stall and play dice for money. This prince's luck in gambling was not very good. He would lose 70% and win 30%. When he won, he would laugh out loud and give the money to everyone.

Cheng Congxian walked into the lobby and looked at the beauties who were gathered there gambling. He was stunned for a long time, and all the anger in his body immediately disappeared. He said hello, and a servant came forward to take him through the lobby and up to the top floor to find Shen Xiyue.

Inside the room, the new courtesan, Miss A Luo, was dancing.

The waist is as slender as a willow, and the eyes are as charming as silk.

Shen Xiyue stretched out one leg, propped up the other, put her hands on her knees, beat the rhythm intermittently, and hummed a little tune.

Cheng Congxian pushed open the door and saw this scene, his eyes widened. A'Luo's dance really touched people's hearts!

He looked at it for a long time before coming back to his senses. He was no longer arrogant, and even spoke in a rather awkward manner: "Qi...Brother Xun, my father asked me to bring you some money."

"Shh! Wait until Luo finishes dancing."

Shen Xiyue hushed, and Cheng Congxian quickly turned around and closed the door. He held the box in his hand, sat obediently aside, and stared at Luo intently: "Okay, okay!!"

Luo wore bells on her ankles, and the tinkling sound she made when she danced was very pleasant to the ear. Cheng Congxian couldn't get enough of seeing and hearing them.

When the song ended, A'Luo came over delicately and knelt beside Shen Xiyue, sweating profusely.

"Aren't you here to give me some money?" Shen Xiyue looked at Cheng Congxian sideways with an expression that said, "Try looking at my woman again."

"Yes Yes!"

Cheng Congxian hurriedly handed over the brocade box in his hand, and his attitude softened:

"Hehe, Brother Qi...Xun! I know you are the boss of Guangyuntai, I know!

I just want to see, this little A Luo is really good! Don't worry, my father told me to get along with you today. Since Guangyuntai is yours, your rules are my rules!"

"One hundred thousand taels?" Shen Xiyue half-lying down, casually opened the brocade box, weighed the silver bills and counted them, feeling a little surprised in her heart. She knew that Cheng Su had money, but she didn't expect him to be so generous at once!

You know, the annual expenses for a large family like Wenyuanhou's Mansion is only 20,000 taels!

Shen Xiyue thought, it seems that this amount of silver is really not enough.

But her face was still full of laziness: "Why, are you planning to follow me? You're bringing so much silver to surrender?"

"Yes! Yes!" Cheng Congxian glanced at Ah Luo again, his face full of sincerity, "It's not a courtesy, but my father said that if you want to spend as much as you want, just ask."

"What are you talking about? How can I, a young master, take advantage of your little money?!" Shen Xiyue closed the brocade box calmly and glanced at him.

At this moment, Cheng Congxian had even forgotten how much injustice he had suffered from Shen Xiyue.

He smiled and said, "Of course not! Brother Xun, don't be angry. It's all my fault for not knowing how to speak and offending you. Oh, let me tell you straight. My father said that his business has a great harvest this year and he has no shortage of money. The new goods will be docked in a few days..."

Shen Xiyue raised her eyebrows and said "oh", and asked casually, "Is it true? What kind of business is so profitable?"

Cheng Congxian was a simple-minded person, but he didn't care about family matters. He scratched his head and said, "I think it was some opium cream? I don't know. Anyway, it's a business with a girl!"

A hint of coldness flashed in Shen Xiyue's slightly narrowed eyes.

No wonder Cheng Su in his previous life could become King Yao’s money bag. Making money was easier than eating and sleeping. It turned out that he was engaged in the opium business that could cost people their lives!

It's really ironic that a prefect could be persuaded by Gu Zhilan to start a business that would bring disaster to the people.

Now that she has hit it, does this cargo ship still want to dock?
